Quite the contrary, there's just too many people viewing the site and the server can't handle it.

Yeah, or it might be because of the company that released it, according to the first comment of this video they trademarked "japanese bug fights" in the USA: http://revver.com/video/600535/japanese-bugs-fight-round-1/

A stag bettle cant kill a lobster ..... Even if it is one of the strongest bugs.... It has no venom or real jaws.

Sexually dimorphic, the males have enlarged mandibles and are larger than the females. Although the male's mandibles seem threatening, they are too weak to be harmful.


-.-

That's an Atlas beetle, not a wimpy stag beetle.



You should watch the videos again ( i m not that stupid that stupid -.- )

It is a stag beetle who fights the lobster -.-
Nope, the beetle fighting the lobster has three horns and is lifting. Stag beetles pinch with two.

Oh. :x Well the blue one gets fucked up by the atlas. So we're both right. ^^

I think some of these fights are a bit twisted, but I don't think traditional beetle fighting (common in many asian countries) is really that bad, cause they really only push each other around and they're designed to fight like that, in order to win a mate.

Yup, usually they dont hurt each other. Those species of beetle dont eat others bugs and they looks like small versions of deer or rhino.

It's really just an issue of why you watch the fights. I know bugs aren't feeling pain and their decisions are only based on simple, logical reactions like a machine, not actual emotional decision making, and it's interesting to see which bug and technique is more powerful, but I don't enjoy watching them die. I think it's a bit screwed up if you watch it because you like to see things die/suffer.

So the big winners seem like: crazy centipede, death stalker, GRASSHOPPER, beetles
Stupid bitch: Asian hornet
Weak bitch: Preying Mantis

it's a mole cricket, which based on the videos alone seem to be relatively aggressive. they have big heads that come with big jaws too; i'd like to see it against a tarantula, centipede, or hornet.

they should have included some emperor scorpions, which imo are the most robust of arachnids

edit - nevermind it's not a mole cricket.

i think he has no chance vs a big tarentula/scorpion/solifuge or even the hornet ( the solifuge he killed was way too small )

edit: it isnt a mole cricket. It looks more like a King Cricket

It's a weta. It seems like its jaws are more powerful than any of the others.

It's interesting that the beetles are so difficult to beat. None of the bugs can pierce their armor, which is why they're not very susceptible to poison. The scorpion tries, but the only unprotected spot is between the joints, and its stinger is too big to fit.

Well, whether they're sentient or not is unknown. From what we know, they sense and react much like computers, but they don't feel and don't have awareness.

Goo sport. :X
